Journal sabat's Journal: OpenBSD Hacked

It is official; NetCraft has confirmed: OpenBSD 3.7 has been hacked by a rogue internet group less than 24 hours after release.

"We can't believe how easy this one was to crack. There are 3 exploits you can do over the internet right out of the box, and I think we're going to find more," said ZeroC00L, a leader of the X0r h@X0rs. The group claims responsibility for demonstrating exploits in the past 5 OpenBSD releases.

"I think the main reason that people think OpenBSD is 'secure' is because Theo [de Raadt, leader of the OpenBSD 'project'] says it is. The truth is about the opposite; we can't find a single exploit in the latest RedHat, but OpenBSD is OpenSwissCheese. All that crap legacy code from fucking Berkeley hippies, you know."

Theo de Raadt could not be reached for comment.

"Experience has proved that some people indeed know everything." -- Russell Baker
